We also work with a number of local organizations to counsel, mentor, and train small businesses through our official Resource Partners: SCORE mentors, Women’s Business Centers, Small Business Development Centers, and Veterans Business Outreach Centers.

Check your loan status

Lenders typically decide when to submit individual PPP loan applications to SBA. Therefore, any questions or concerns regarding individual PPP loan applications must be directed to your lender.

If you are unsure about your PPP loan status, or if your PPP loan application has been flagged due to data anomalies, please contact your lender to get more information.

View loan balance and make payments

Create an account in the MySBA Loan Portal (lending.sba.gov) to monitor your PPP loan status.

Payments can only be made using the MySBA Loan Portal for SBA-purchased PPP loans. All others can continue to set up and manage online payments at Pay.gov.
